The way politics work is that "Nobody won". Look it up! This bill will help my family considerably. *My %^$%#^%$ insurance company already has been raising my rates constantly, and trying to give us the runaround. *This thing, as odd as it is, will make a difference in several important salient health-related details, cost not being a big deal among them. Bruce You can fire them, up until Obama signs it into law. *Then you are forced to have insurance or accept government health care. Too bad, you're forced by Obama to pay someone you hate. Right now, I have no choice *anyway* - if I don't pay installments to some bloodsucking insurer, I run the risk of my family - both of whom have highly treatable preexisting conditions - dying needlessly. *If Obama and I really had our way, the government-run single payer option - used VERY successfully by numerous more civilized nations around the world - would obviate the need to pay any private for-profit company whose sole goal is to milk me out of money and support me as little as possible in my time of need. You go to them they don't come to you. *You get out your wallet freely, but Obama wants to hold a gun to your head. I don't especially care if you like the government option or not - the proof is in the pudding, and the substantial majority of people I have If you want to live in France/Canada.... *then just do it. spoken with from those nations have good cause to believe that their systems work well. *Many cannot believe the barbaric system we are still stuck with here in the States. I have an English Girlfriend..... * they don't like or get good health care, her girlfriend died 20 years ago, killed by the National health care who didn't tell her she had stomach cancer until it was too late.... * she came here to America and the doctors said that, had she only come here earlier, it was treatable. That's your good government care. Nice and pretty, and her name was Chris. Bruce- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text -- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Well, that's one. *To set and match it - my Dad, depending on US medicine, did not know he had stomach cancer until it was too late, thanks to 40 years of inept Americam medicine. Another - my Mom had cancer for three years, died of it, and the doctors never did figure out what kind of cancer it was! * So don't give me any bull**** about the British medical system failing its patients - the US fails as often if not more, and the life expectancy in the UK, despite what can only be described as a horrible diet, is a year longer than the US. Same with about 30 other nations who all have socialized medicine. We ourselves spend a good deal of time wondering if my wife's asthma is going to be effectively treated next month or year. *Something they do not fear in Britain. I have plenty of stories from Brits who would not trade their system for the third-world system we have in the States. *People with chronic diseases and disabilities, people who have immediate problems in their homes, get medical attention when they need it, day or night, at their homes, and they pay not a penny OOP. *They have plenty of $$$ for travel, hobbies, nice homes and fun. Bruce I happen to know a fellow (a co-worker) who took a job in one of offices in England. He's a former Army officer, a hard-over right winger. He had a heart attack while in England and gave himself over to the British medical system. He never had a bad word to say about it. His treatment was good, the doctors and nurses caring and professional and the hospital -- if a bit old -- was clean. It was also cheap and he didn't have to bicker with an insurance company about what was covered. I hear stories like this one from a half-dozen Brits I know - but as I said, I apparently know the wrong ones - you know, the ones who are HAPPY with their system. Obviously getting descent health care in England is a crap shoot! What a great F*cking System. Obvious to a person who assumes everything and knows nothing. |

Comes right down to it, medical care anywhere is a crapshoot. That's why malpractice suits are so popular, and one of the primary reasons for the high cost of health care. |

This will change only slowly - like so many things in this universe, the physiology of living things is stranger and more complex than we can imagine. Doctors have no choice but to make a mistake sometimes. I do think we need some level of tort reform. A valid malpractice suit is one thing - a move to be as greedy as possible is quite another.

Never... I will go to Obama-land Prison first. Where you will pay for food, water, sewer, Cable, clothes and electric and room and board.... So you're a socialist. NO... it makes me stubborn, and principled, and expensive for tax payers like you. Do you drive without car insurance, or do your principles end there? Maybe he's like my neighbors down the road. They paid cash for their house, almost $200K in 1994, and never got insurance. In early 2007, it burned to the ground, due to an electrical problem in the attic, they lost 50 years of family pics and everything else they owned. They said on TV, =3FWe never thought we would need it!=3F. Morons. How cheap do you have to be to not have homeowner=3Fs insurance? I went by the empty lot a few minutes ago, and there they were, sitting in their car, like they usually are. There=3Fs nothing there, so I have no idea why they do this. Doesn=3Ft matter how bad the weather is, most days, they are sitting there in the car, or on nicer days, folding chairs. It appears that they are finally going to start rebuilding soon, as there are stakes that were put in recently. And all this changed your life how? I've only had insurance on one house, my first house that I stupidly got a loan to purchase.... *I never made that mistake again. *I didn't need insurance on a house "I" lived in, I am a very careful person, but if you're an idiot.... *you may want it. Why would I want to take on risk of your careless lifestyle, also there are people that burn their house down to get the money, why do I want to be in "business" with that kind.. *Do you think you can win with those people? I never had a fire or any other disaster that was able to destroy the homes I bought. There's a thunderstorm right around the corner with your name and address on it... Yeah, he's gambling a tornado always misses his house, that lightning never hits it, that a tree never falls, or some idiot without car insurance never drives his car into his house, that his TV, stove, etc, etc, never catches on fire. The list of stuff he doesn't think will ever happen is endless. He just seems like such a stable, responsible guy, doesn't he? -- BDK, leader of the non-jew, non-existant jew paid shills! |

Little kids do dumb stuff all the time, like leaving faucets on, throwing clothes on lamps, etc. Then there's the times where a friend of your kid comes over and there's an accident. You want to pay for shoulder surgery, etc, on your kid's buddy out of pocket? A friend of mine was the kid who got hurt when he tripped on something (Probably a foot of one of the other kids), and fell and broke his shoulder and tore it up badly. It wasn't cheap, and if the parents weren't responsible enough to have insurance, they would have had to pay it out of pocket. Most people don't have thousands of dollars laying around to pay for a new house, or a visitor's injury. Ever been bitten by a dog? I was once, it wasn't a big deal, but later on, that same dog did a real number on another kid's face. 35 years later, he's got a nasty scar on his cheek. And no he didn't do anything to the dog, he was at their house, his mom was best friends with the dog's owner, and the dog just nailed him on the face. -- BDK, leader of the non-jew, non-existant jew paid shills!- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Now BDK - his kids never do dumb things.
